8) Shanti/Ashtangi

Notice something?

Title: "Shanti"

Track: *8*
Some more info about the video: Shanti/Ashtangi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is a mantra on that page, it might prove useful.

The text is from a book called "Yoga Taravali" and it is originally
written *and* sung in Sanskrit.

Link about the book: Indiaclub.com: Adi Sankara’s Yoga Taravali : Yoga

This may be nothing, but the eight.png image has this in the image properties:

Creation Software: aaxaohasaafeaarg

When I open the image in notepad, it says
tEXtSoftware aaxaohasaafeaarg

It's also 88 dpi. Web standard is 72.

The Eight image has three eights in it (3 splat marks with eight bits). Three eights = 888.
Isn't 888 a toll free number in USA?

And we have just been given a bunch of numbers with it...

Also Mourna just mentioned the dpi.
The name + the dpi also equals 888.


I have eights on the brain now.
(How many eights does it take to......

"Hi!" implies openness and contact just like "Shant is open". Have we missed the entrance?

www.shanti.com - Shanti.com 

I don't see any reason to link this site into the Shanti thing. It is a mountain but I have no hiking boots.

It's also 88 dpi. Web standard is 72.
Neowin Forums > PNG - tEXtSoftware Adobe ImageReady

This implies "Adobe ImageReady" was replaced. So "aaxaohasaafeaarg" might be another code.

Other examples: "PNG IHDR 0 PLTE˙˙˙˙ š• tRNS ćŘf tEXtSoftware gif2png 2.3.2"

So yes the software used field has been edited.

EDIT: doesn't seem to be caeser cypher. But I think we are past simple answers And the blurred HI! was to trick us into thinking that was a code in pixels!

I'm now seeing multiples of eight everywhere, but I can't help but notice that aaxaohasaafeaarg has 16 characters.

I have just tried about 4-5 different methods to decode the "aaxaohasaafeaarg" but its proving so tricky with the three sets of aa in there
Will keep trying

Eight groupings of two?

aa

oh
as
aa
fe

rg

Not from the periodic table... ringing any bells?

Well, As and Fe are from the periodic table but I don't think that's relevant, or helpful.

If you have FireFox get ReloadEvery and help me load this page way too much. I estimate I will have the page to zero in 3 hours. Maybe if you help it can be sooner....

Does the counter really matter, you think? It's been reset seemingly arbitrarily.

It does sometimes, a lot of times he/she puts up a new clue when there's a counter change, so it's a good thing to do if we're stuck and bored.

Perhaps if we fail to get the clue before the page reaches zero something bad happens... you know like he gives up and we go back to being productive...

Different number at the top, no word.

I am guessing we need to get the counter to each of these numbers to reveal a new word.

9232 = Doubling.
